What is PIM?

Personal information management or PIM is both the practice and the study of the activities people perform to acquire, organize, maintain, retrieve, use, and control the distribution of information items such as documents (paper-based and digital), Web pages, and email messages for everyday use to complete tasks (work-related and not) and to fulfill a person’s various roles (as parent, employee, friend, member of community, etc.).
[Jones and Teevan 2007]

What should the IR system
index?
How will the user search for it again?

Re-contextualizing HCIR• Use scenarios: Retrieval,
Reorganization, Reminding• Very short, incomplete text in
unusual language• Importance of lightweight interaction• User has intimate knowledge of the
corpus

Ethnographic Study• 27 participants, mainly knowledge
workers• Method: semi-structured interviews
and artifact examinations• Goal: learn more about existing
information scrap practice

We often remember aspects of our data extrinsic to the bits themselves

Context• Automatic context
capture and association with note contents
• Useful for re-contextualizing the note to divine its contents, or in re-finding the note

Reflections and Open Questions
• Faceted browsing scaling to large numbers of contextual facets
• Additional tools and techniques• Bringing together HCI and IR in a
difficult domain to see where innovation might lie
